EVENT IDEA! Interest searching... - Meena - 03-24-2015

Hey guys, In GW2 I used to run a few events though none were very big. However the most fun I ever had running an event was something that ran a little like...

Now I am here searching for interest to see how many people would be interested in participating in an event like this over the evening (as it takes 2-3 hours) and if anyone would be willing to assist me in GM'ing the one off event.
teams consist of 5 members plus ONE GM.

Participants must:
  • Pick a Team to be part of: Red, Blue, Green, Orange
  • Wait for their MAILED guide on if they are innocent or the murderer!
  • Solve the mystery / Not get caught!
  • Move from Areas 1-4 In order. Each Area has different clues.
Participants can...
  • Search for clues in the designated areas - we will have a list of where things are and it is up to your roleplay to find it!
  • Sabotage or not reveal certain information to the rest of their team!
  • Defeat one another (Represented by Rock paper scissors ((rolls)) )
  • and much more!
A GM Must:
  • Be ready for the event and check the written GM sheets for Areas 1-4.
  • Not pick favorites to win - its a game within a game!
  • Not tell anyone if information was tampered with successfully or unsuccessfully.
  • Ensure questions get answered for each team.

There will be a small story to go along with the murder mystery - but remember, it isn't a real murder, its play pretend for adults!

Any and all feedback is welcome <3

NO MURDER OF AN NPC OR PC TAKES PLACE. Its a Game within a Game. <3

One word - yes. Also first.

We've had an event like this on my WoW server some while ago and while I haven't been able to attend, I then kept weeping over the fact as the impressions I heard were really positive.

So yeah, not going to waste another chance again.

yes! I'm glad you're interested. I'll probably start a signup sheet at some point.

I volunteer Theula'sae as tribute! owo Omg I would love to do this if at all possible, it just sounds like something he'd enjoy to no end.

I remember you hosting these! They were quite a lot of fun from what I heard so I would be interested in seeing this.

One thing I forgot to poke about, though.

Quote: Wait for their MAILED guide on if they are innocent or the murderer!

Does this mean the murderer will be picked on random among the participants?

Exactly that. :3 Sometimes there is an accomplice too.

RE: Interest searching.. - Cato - 03-24-2015

I'd be interested in getting involved. It'd certainly fit Graeham as he'd leap at the chance to polish his investigative skills!

Okay, that's kind... I'm not sure if that will work for me, to be honest, unless I wouldn't be using my own character. I mean, it's not like I want him to be a murder all of a sudden. Or if this is some alternate reality scenario.

It isn't a real murder. It is a staged game. so there has been a 'murder' in the story. (No one actually dies) And its a social game like people play at home - but you're acting it out.

Nah Amariyo: "Th-theula'sae-sensei is in?! I-it's not like I learn from him or anything, geez.... where do I sign up?"

I'd throw Nah at this if the time this is held agrees with me. Yeah but it looks mighty interestin.
